A dying man gathered his lawyer, doctor and clergyman at his bedside and handed each of them an envelope containing $25,000 in cash. He made them each promise that after his death, during his repose, they would place the three envelpes in his coffin. He told them that he wanted to take the money with him.
A week later, the man died. At the viewing, the lawyer and the doctor and the clergyman each concealed an envelpe in the coffin and bid their old client and friend farewell.
By chance, these three met several months later. Soon the clergyman, feeling guilty, blurted out a confession saying that there was only $10,000 in the envelope he placed in the offin. He felt rather than waster all the money he would send it to a mission in south america. he asked for their forgiveness.
The doctor moved by the gentle clergyman's sincerity confessed that he too had kept some of the money for a worthy medical charity......
..... the lawyer expressed his deep disappointment in the felonious behavior of two of his oldest and most trusted friends. "I am the only one who kept his promis to our dying friend. I want you both to know that envelpe I placed in the coffin contained the full amount. Indeed, my envelope contained my personal check for the entire $25,000."
